Hopefully, nobody really noticed, but Jonah and I finally moved our aging Red Hat server to the very friendly Ubuntu Linux distribution. Previously, Luggle had been hosted on Fedora Core, and unfortunately, it was really starting to show its age. If you haven't heard of Ubuntu, you really should take a peak at what Mark Shuttleworth and company have put together. In a nutshell, Ubuntu is built around Debian with a focus on being user-friendly. (If you're unfamiliar with Debian, it is Linux with a focus on easy upgrades.) I have many opinions about using Linux as a desktop installation, and while I still think that the whole experience isn't quite ready for the 'average joe', I do believe that Ubuntu has advanced the cause considerably. I even went so far as to try my litmus test, which you can read about here. Well, that's about it for tonight. Cheers! -Jon |
